The Girl Who Sexted Through Tubes in the Flatiron

By: G.G. Melies

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

In 1917, Gloria will arrive in New York with the idea of finding work. The wind on Fifth Avenue and Broadway will push her toward securing a position as a Lamson pneumatic tube operator in the Flatiron Building. Meanwhile, in the 22nd century, in a New York submerged by rising seas due to climate change, an archaeologist will make a curious discovery in the ruins of the same building. A message trapped for two hundred years will reveal a forgotten story of the city.

A New York historical romantic fiction with elements of science fiction and post-Victorian mystery. Set in the second decade of the 20th century, it presents a pre-electronic, dystopian era with intense passions remarkably similar to today’s, but with different communication systems. A brief glimpse into the era through the eyes of young lovers searching for their first jobs in a city undergoing major social and structural changes.
